Product details
Overview
AM3354BZCED60 from Texas Instruments is a 300-MHz ARM Cortex-A8-based Sitara™ processor with 256KB L2 cache (ECC), 8-channel 12-bit SAR ADC, dual 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet MACs (1-port in ZCE package), and PRU-ICSS supporting EtherCAT and PROFIBUS for industrial real-time control. It integrates SGX530 3D graphics, USB 2.0 DRD, and GPMC for NAND/NOR/SRAM interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the AM3354BZCED60 datasheet, AM3354BZCED60 pinout, AM3354BZCED60 application, or AM3354BZCED60 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 298-ball NFBGA (ZCE) package, industrial temperature range (–40°C to 125°C), single-core 300-MHz operation, PRU-ICSS I/O pin limitations, and DDR3/DDR2/mDDR memory interface support.
Technical Context
The AM3354BZCED60 implements a single ARM Cortex-A8 core with NEON SIMD coprocessor, 32KB L1 instruction and 32KB L1 data cache (parity), and 256KB L2 cache with ECC. Its PRU-ICSS subsystem contains two 200-MHz programmable real-time units with 8KB instruction RAM, 8KB data RAM, and 12KB shared RAM - all with parity protection.
It supports IEEE 1588v1 Precision Time Protocol via integrated Ethernet MACs, features a 24-bit LCD controller with up to 2048×2048 resolution, and includes hardware crypto accelerators (AES, SHA, RNG). The device uses SmartReflex™ Class 2B adaptive voltage scaling and dynamic voltage-frequency scaling (DVFS) for power optimization.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ARM-based industrial processor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AM3352BZCZD60 | 324-ball NFBGA (ZCZ), 600-MHz Cortex-A8, dual Ethernet ports, no SGX530 graphics | Higher performance CPU and dual-Gigabit Ethernet; lacks 3D graphics engine and PRU-ICSS full feature set | Select when higher compute throughput and dual Ethernet are required, and graphics are unnecessary |
| AM3356BZCED60 | Same ZCE package, 600-MHz Cortex-A8, identical peripheral set including PRU-ICSS and SGX530 | Drop-in speed upgrade path; maintains same pinout, thermal profile, and industrial temperature rating | Choose for performance scaling without PCB redesign; validated for same industrial operating conditions |
Compared with AM3352BZCZD60, AM3354BZCED60 offers lower power consumption and smaller footprint but sacrifices dual Ethernet and graphics; versus AM3356BZCED60, it trades 300-MHz operation for improved thermal margin and cost reduction in thermally constrained designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for AM3354BZCED60?
The AM3354BZCED60 is rated for industrial extended temperature operation from –40°C to +125°C. This rating applies specifically to the 300-MHz speed grade in the ZCE package and is validated per TI's recommended operating conditions in SPRS717L Section 5.5. Thermal design must maintain junction temperature below 125°C under worst-case power dissipation.
Does AM3354BZCED60 support secure boot functionality?
AM3354BZCED60 supports optional secure boot through hardware crypto accelerators (AES, SHA, RNG) and one-time programmable fuses. Implementation requires custom part engagement with Texas Instruments and firmware development using TI's Secure Boot User's Guide (SPRUIV5). The feature is not enabled by default and depends on fuse programming during manufacturing.
How many Ethernet ports does AM3354BZCED60 provide in the ZCE package?
AM3354BZCED60 in the ZCE package provides one 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet MAC (EMAC) with MII, RMII, RGMII, and MDIO interface support. The second EMAC is not bonded out in the 298-ball ZCE variant, unlike the 324-ball ZCZ package which exposes both ports.
What graphics capabilities does AM3354BZCED60 include?
AM3354BZCED60 integrates the PowerVR SGX530 3D graphics engine delivering up to 20 million polygons per second. It supports OpenGL ES 1.1/2.0, OpenMAX IL, and Direct3D Mobile APIs, with tile-based rendering and unified shader architecture - enabling rich GUIs for HMIs without external GPU components.
Can AM3354BZCED60 directly interface with DDR3L memory?
Yes, AM3354BZCED60 supports DDR3L memory operation at 400-MHz clock (800-Mbps data rate) as specified in SPRS717L Section 1.1. The EMIF controller is compatible with DDR3L's 1.35-V VDDQ requirement and includes programmable drive strength, termination, and timing registers to meet JEDEC DDR3L-1600 specifications.
